SILK-FINISH COTTON

Our excellent quilting thread

Quilting combines both heart and hand, every seam tells a story.

Quilting is more than a craft; it is a spiritual and traditional experience. Every seam tells a story, every quilt connects generations. With every needle movement, love flows into the fabric, creating unique patterns that give warmth and comfort. The colors and fabrics reflect memories and emotions, while the artistic designs give the quilt a creative expression. Quilting is not just a technique, but an artwork that connects hearts and hands.

I have been sewing and quilting with Mettler thread for 4 years now and I can say it has brought my work to its greatest level. I love using the Silk-Finish Cotton 28 for hand quilting mini quilts and other smaller projects, all the beautiful colors and the quality of the thread adds the perfect touch to any of my designs. For finishing my larger quilts I always go with Silk-Finish Cotton Multi 50 to add a beautiful mix of colors to my projects made with muted fabric.

I used SFC for the Gilde Dreiklang quilt & am thrilled! This thread is outstanding in its quality & performance. Its silky surface makes sewing a pure pleasure. It glides effortlessly through the fabric & leaves a beautiful, even seam. The color palette is impressive. Especially for longarm quilting, SFC has proven to be extremely durable yet smooth, I haven't had a thread break. Overall, I can warmly recommend SFC to all quilting enthusiasts!

Silk-Finish Cotton Thread has become my ally for creating the most beautiful decorative seams. Embroidery stitch, topstitching and rolled hems are the 3 techniques where I systematically use this thread. Slightly thicker and satin-finished, finishes are no longer the same. Professional effect guaranteed.
